Verse 49 is found in chapter 1 of 1 Chronicles. The final section of the chapter presents the kings and chiefs of Edom. The enumeration shows that Edom developed its own political structures before Israel established a similar monarchy. The genealogy and list of rulers function as historical memory and as an introduction to the later contrast between neighboring nations and the Davidic line of Israel.
